How do I get the Guard Card in California?
To obtain a guard card in the state of California, you need to complete an 8-hour “Power to Arrest” training course. After the training, you need to pass the examination before you can be issued your Guard Card (application, live scan, and training fees do apply). You can attend an in-person or online training course offered by a BSIS-certified training facility. We'd be honored if you'd choose Luna's Security Training Academy as your certified training facility of choice.
How long is Guard Card training?
In total, there’s a 40-hour training requirement for every applicant. This includes:

- 16 hours of security guard training on elective courses within 6 months from the issuance of the guard card.
